When I got home from work after I say hi to Luke,
one of the first things I want to do is get really cozy and comfortable in my space.
So I'll usually change into my pajamas. It's still warm here in Australia
So I'm still wearing short shorts and a shirt. Once I am in my PJs,
my next step is to eat because when I get home from work, my natural state is starving.
So I prioritize convenience when it comes to my food, especially after work,
so at the moment, I'm using Solara, which is like a plant-based meals delivery service.
Super easy, super, well, reasonably healthy,
and you just chuck it in the microwave and it's so easy. The last thing I feel like doing when I get home from work
is making food so this is so convenient. It makes my life so much better.
Sometimes I'll eat dinner with Luke but sometimes I won't. Tonight I just ate on my own.
Usually, we eat different food because I eat a vegan diet and he doesn't so we kind of just do our own thing.
This meal was like a carrot Bolognese with pesto. It's really good. The Bolognese is kind of sweet,
but the pesto is, like, it's on point. So after I've eaten usually I'll head to the bathroom
to take my face off because there's nothing better than a fresh face after you get home from work.
Just feeling super clean and fresh. So I'll tie my hair up. I use coconut oil to wipe off my makeup.
It's usually pretty good. It's just one thing that doesn't seem to aggravate my skin.
Other cleanses tend to make me break out and then usually I will wet a hot towel and
take off all of my makeup. From now, I put on a lot of different products. I'm using O cosmetics at the moment
so I'll chuck on some under-eye stuff
I'll put on a pure age defying serum and then I'll put on my proper night moisturizer.
My skin is really dry. So I would sure like moisturize my skin as much as I possibly can.
I love the feeling of moisturized skin especially before I go to bed because I know it's just all gonna
sink in overnight and my skin will feel nice and fresh in the morning.
So after my face is all fresh then I will clean my teeth.
This toothpaste is a more, like, natural vegan toothpaste
so prior to this I was using just your regular old toothpaste and they really give, like, you know
like a tang in your mouth feels it's so fresh
but they're stupid doesn't quite give that feeling and it takes a while to get used to that.
So at the moment I'm wearing braces on my bottom teeth,
so I'm brushing my teeth for an especially a long period of time.
Like I said, I'm all about that moisturized life,
so the next thing that I do is I chuck on some kind of lip balm
This is like the very last of my Carmex and I live for carmex, but I need an alternative
so let me know if you have any suggestions down below.
It's cherry and it makes my lips tingle
and I can like feel it kicking and I think that's what I like the most about it.
So by this time all of the lamps in my house have automatically switched on
I have LIFX lights, so they just come on at I think 6 p.m
and my house feels so cozy when they turn on,
like, just the whole house gets this warm glow about it and it kind of signifies that it's time to
start winding down and getting ready for bed. So every night I try to do a little bit of a shutdown routine
It's kind of just to close off my mind and get prepared for success the next day
So what I usually do is I'll go through my emails and see if there's anything urgent if I have any messages that I didn't
respond to in the day
Then I'll try to respond to them now I go through all of my to-dos
so I have like all my lists and stuff just so I know what all of my open loops are.
I braindump any new to-dos
that have come to my mind just so that I can sort of get them out of my head and into somewhere that I trust
And then I set my 3 to-dos for the next day
So I do this all in my things 3 app that I've talked about before that way when I wake up in the morning
I know exactly what I'm supposed to be doing
I kind of have like an agenda for my day
While I try to stick to 3 to-dos sometimes I do go over it. Let's be honest
So once I've done that usually that signifies like Ok, it's like time to turn your brain off
So lately, what I've been doing is reading and I'm a big reader of fantasy books
I love all of your fantasy book recommendations, so please like send them my way
So once I head into bed, it usually it's actually like a devil's lair, like genuinely I'll whole room is red
It looks scary in the video, but in real life, it's actually just like cozy
It might be hard to believe when you're looking at it and then I will collapse on my mattress
So this video is actually sponsored by koala, which is so so I wanted to work with koala for a multitude of reasons
But they just seem like they have really strong values
So koala is part of a canopy which is a collective of brands that only use sustainably sourced textiles
They've actually donated over 1 million dollars to charities. They planted over 5,000 trees and adopted over
37,000 koalas their mattresses are also certified to be
100% Australian made it comes with a cute little koala toy and a real adoption certificate from the WWF so that you feel like a
good human being we unbox this mattress about a week ago, and it's been like heaven compared to our old mattress
There is a full 10 year warranty on the mattress, which is awesome and every customer gets
120 days to trial all of the products
So if it's not right for you
Then you can just call them up and they'll give you a full refund and pick it up
Luke and I are the kind of couple that it'd be totally up to having separate beds
So when we help more space for it, even though that's kind of taboo, but hey
But this mattress is really good because if I toss and turn in my sleep, which I do
Luke's side doesn't undisturbed and vice versa. So you get 10% off anything koala just use my link in the description down below
So Luke is a big like a mattress
Sleep person like cares a lot about these things
What's your view of the Koala mattress? I know it's like a 9. A 9? 9's pretty good. That's pretty good
It feels like a lot better than our last one. Yeah a last mattress was
from eBay
Anyways, like- I guess it's not hard beat -Yeah, not hard to beat.
But I still feel like this is like a big jump up.
